Week 13 vs Atlanta Falcons

Passing: 227 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT

Defeating the Falcons for the second time to complete the season sweep was definitely a big moral win for a franchise centered on young talent.

The victory took the Bucs’ NFC South record to 3-1, and evened their season record at 6-6 entering the final quarter of the season.

Winston scored for the Bucs on the ground and through the air as he led his team back from a 9-7 first half deficit.

His 17th place finish in fantasy scoring led Tampa Bay to a 23-19 victory and brought playoff talk back to the franchise for the first time in nearly a decade.
